Are Medical Students Ready for Internship?

Laura Bontempo, MD, along with colleagues from the Departments of Medicine and Pediatrics, published the article titled “Core Entrustable Professional Activities: A Survey of the Confidence of Fourth-Year Medical Students and Residency Program Directors” in the September issue of Medical Science Educator. Their analysis of surveys completed by 168 UMSoM graduates and 12 residency program directors revealed shared confidence regarding interns' ability to perform most of the professional activities expected of interns. Students expressed lowest confidence in their ability to take a history and perform a physical exam, to give or receive patient handoffs, and to identity system failures and thereby contribute to a culture of safety and improvment. These findings can be used to refine medical school curricula so as to address the 13 CEPAs, with consideration of specialty differences. The article is available at the journal's website: http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s40670-016-0264-5?no-access=true
